The first new console Katamari Damacy in 14 years is arriving this October, and Nintendo is a coward for cutting this very "nice" 69 joke from the Direct announcement

Once Upon a Katamari.

It's been 14 years since we got a traditional Katamari Damacy game on consoles, but publisher Bandai Namco is putting things right with a brand-new entry in the series. Announced during today's Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, Once Upon a Katamari is a time-traveling adventure set to launch this October.

If you've played any Katamari game, the basics will be familiar here – you'll still be pushing a little ball around, rolling up progressively larger objects as that ball increases in size. This time, the King of All Cosmos has accidentally destroyed Earth, so you'll have to travel through time, from the Jurassic period to historic Japan, to sort everything out.
